I was in UAE for 3 years without a break and I was hoping that there would be progress in the application and seeing no movement I decided to take a vacation of approx. 3 months. Now that I am in India.. IRCC wants to screw and vacation and started asking for Remed, PoF, Sch A and PCC. If they had asked this last week I would have done it in a breeze.
Can you not get the PCC while not being physically present in UAE?

Try to get it as soon as you can, before IRCC snoozes your file for another indefinite amount of time.
Yeah, I am looking at all options. Plus, could you clarify if the old UK PCC would be sufficient? Because I have seen different iterations of PCC request from IRCC and from what I understand, sometimes they ask for all PCC and sometimes only for the current country of residence.

Since we are dealing with IRCC we cant really be sure.

If you haven't been back to UK and stayed an extended period since you got the old one, it should suffice.

Can I write both addresses, my permanent and current temporary one in the address history and for the PCC attach the one from my permanent address and write a LOE to explain that my permanent address is the same and I’m in the other city for a temporary assignment & PCC is only made for permanent address.
Indian PCC issued by PSK is valid all over India. Get your PCC done at permanent address, no need to include any LOE. If you are getting it done from a local police station then you'll have to ask them to include all the addresses. But I'd suggest to get it done from PSK.

But then there will be a discrepancy. My work history will mention my position in the different city and in my address history there will be no mention of that city? Won’t that discrepancy cause an issue?
In address history mention all the addresses permanent and current or any other address you stayed at.

So, Ontario held another Skilled Trades draw this year.

https://www.ontario.ca/page/oinp-express-entry-notifications-interest

They sent 1,034 NOIs to candidates with CRS score range of 300 - 461. Can't wrap my head around that range. Is it because there aren't any candidates with higher scores or have they changed the criteria again ?

Plus, why so many skilled trade draws ? Is Canada in desperate need of those professions or will All Program draws be on bulk numbers for Ontario to wait it out for HCP ?

Of all the immigration streams, I thought Ontario had the best one and pretty straight forward to follow, now it seems theat they are turning worser than the whole IRCC in 2021.

My guess is they've reimposed the points cap on their draws to avoid wastage since normal draws are set to return.

As for the skilled trades draws, those are probably to support the expanding population. Perhaps there just isn't that many people in the trades within the high crs population.

I think so. They have done it before in 2021 as well.

It's so strange! Till now, they have issued more than double of all Skilled Trades' NOIs in 2021.
